Orlando Magic v Cleveland Cavaliers

Currently reeling in the 14th spot of the Eastern Conference rankings, Orlando Magic still await their first NBA title since their inception in 1989. Despite having some respectable players in Aaron Gordon, Elfrid Payton, Nikola Vucevic, and Jonathan Simmons, the Magic continue to underperform.

Orlando has made two NBA Finals runs so far in the 1994-95 season as well as the 2008-09 season. While they were trounced 4-0 by Houston Rockets in their first NBA Finals appearance, Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers took home the spoils in 2009, winning 4-1 in five games.

Like the Suns, Orlando Magic are also enduring their longest playoffs drought in franchise history having not made it to the postseason since 2012, making it a total of five seasons. The drought is set to extend another year in this case as well. Evidently, Orlando is nowhere near an NBA title in the current scheme of things.
